It is.
Scotland Wales and N Ireland have assemblies but are still governed and controlled more fully by the UK and its government.
The Republic of Ireland, obviously, as it should be clear to all on these shores, is NOT part of the UK.
Therefore neither owned or governed by the UK and the UK government.
I'm pretty sure the great Republic of Ireland is really glad of that fact too.
